Tulsa Never Ended: The Battle for Repair and Justice Guest: Damario Solomon-Simmons, Esq., M.Ed.

View descriptionShare
 

Season six is officially here, and Tamika D. Mallory and Mysonne are not playing around.

First up, the EZPass toll trap. Tamika received a bill with $377 in actual tolls and $1,600 in fees. That's not an accident, that's predatory. She breaks down the "End the Toll Trap" legislation moving through New York and New Jersey and announces an upcoming virtual town hall where legislators, attorneys, and survivors will tell you exactly how to fight back. Then it's a quick rant on the return policies bleeding consumers dry. Stores pushed everything online and made returning items feel like a part-time job.

Then the conversation shifts to their in-studio guest Attorney Demario Solomon Simmons, founder of Justice for Greenwood and the lead attorney representing the last living survivors of the 1921 Tulsa Race Massacre. Demario shares his origin story, growing up in North Tulsa, nearly losing everything, and discovering the massacre while sitting in a college classroom. He also talks about his new book Redeem a Nation and the decades-long fight for Greenwood reparations that still isn't over.

To close it out, Mysonne weighs in on the Gucci Mane situation and why you can't glorify street credibility and then call on the courts when the energy gets matched.
